In the latest LPL Market Signals podcast, LPL Research’s Chief Equity Strategist, Jeffrey Buchbinder, is joined by Chief Technical Strategist Adam Turnquist, as they recap last week’s strong bounce back for stocks, highlight the improving market breadth, and provide some perspective on market concentration. Stocks rose solidly last week, rising all five days. It wasn’t about the mega-caps this week as a broadening out lifted large cap equity benchmarks. The strategists reviewed several charts and discussed how broad participation underpinned the latest breakout to new highs on the S&P 500. They highlight how this rotation has also been evident in small caps but note the current technical evidence does not yet support a shift toward sustainable outperformance of small caps over large caps. Given the uptick in interest rate volatility, they also discuss the technical setup for 10-year Treasury yields, including key support and resistance levels. Next, the strategists provide historical perspective on the high degree of concentration in the stock market today. The shift toward passive investments has been a big reason why. Concentration by itself isn’t a reason for a market correction, but it could amplify an eventual selloff. The strategists wrap up with a preview of the week ahead. Minutes from the November Fed meeting, the Fed’s preferred inflation metric, and a big batch of Treasury auctions will keep markets focused on interest rates. Tracking: #663336
